Cut-offs for Maharashtra's government medical colleges remain among the highest in India. For General category candidates, top colleges like KEM Mumbai and Nair Hospital require 600+ NEET scores, while OBC/SC/ST categories see slightly lower cut-offs. The 15% All India Quota seats have even higher cut-offs compared to the 85% state quota. Emerging colleges in rural areas (Gondia, Chandrapur) have relatively lower cut-offs, providing opportunities for mid-rank scorers.
